Sinners (2025) 98% “This is not the movie most people will expect. The torn flesh and ghastly amounts of blood confirm it is a horror movie, but the first half of the picture focuses on building the characters, and establishing a connection between them and the audience.” – Digital Journal Apr 22, 2025 Full Review The Amateur (2025) 61% “This is far from a Bourne-level espionage picture, but there is something satisfying about watching “a pencil pusher” get his revenge.” – Digital Journal Apr 22, 2025 Full Review Drop (2025) 84% “It’s exciting to play whodunnit alongside Violet, but it starts to feel a little drawn out... the filler in between feels like it’s getting in the way of a higher intensity narrative.” – Digital Journal Apr 22, 2025 Full Review The Friend (2024) 83% “[The dog] has a very expressive face and appears to be acting alongside his human co-stars. His sadness offsets anyone else’s on screen, causing audiences to empathize with him, perhaps even more than the human bereaved.” – Digital Journal Apr 22, 2025 Full Review Death of a Unicorn (2025) 54% “Dealing in mythical creatures gave Scharfman carte blanche in developing the story. He built on the basic unicorn legend, weaving in a sinister undertone to create a wicked horror fantasy that fuses beauty and malice.” – Digital Journal Mar 31, 2025 Full Review Mickey 17 (2025) 77% “This is an unconventional picture, but it is still a crowd pleaser. Mickey is a little goofy, but likeable, giving Pattinson the opportunity to explore personality traits audiences haven’t seen him play on screen before.” – Digital Journal Mar 31, 2025 Full Review Last Breath (2025) 80% “While it’s rare to want a movie to be longer, it seems as if this story could’ve benefited from a little more development around the key personalities and the job, so there is a stronger connection with the audience.” – Digital Journal Mar 31, 2025 Full Review Paddington in Peru (2024) 93% “Colman is even more amusing as the retired bears’ caretaker. She’s infallibly cheery even when what she is saying contradicts her positivity, making the Reverend Mother one of the film’s highlights.” – Digital Journal Mar 31, 2025 Full Review Heart Eyes (2025) 81% “It’s been a minute since genre fans got a good slasher movie, never mind one that’s also a clever, self-aware horror comedy... [that] doesn't take itself too seriously, nor does it pass up an opportunity to make fun of the genre’s or holiday’s conventions” – Digital Journal Feb 10, 2025 Full Review Companion (2025) 93% “The cast do an excellent job of creating three-dimensional personalities in a short time, giving the audience reasons to love, hate and laugh... But Quaid and Thatcher are the key players.” – Digital Journal Feb 10, 2025 Full Review Hard Truths (2024) 95% “While it would be simple to let everyone hate Pansy, it’s to Leigh’s and Jean-Baptiste’s credit that they create a cantankerous character that is so inexplicably miserable, she earns the audience’s compassion.” – Digital Journal Feb 10, 2025 Full Review Presence (2024) 88% “[This is] a tight 85-minute family drama that evolves into a thriller... The camerawork is exceptional, creating the essence of an invisible character with emotions the audience experience via the camera’s movement and framing” – Digital Journal Feb 10, 2025 Full Review Moana 2 (2024) 61% “The film picks up in the second half largely because Moana and Maui are reunited, which invigorates the narrative; separate, their stories are still relevant, but less entertaining.” – Digital Journal Jan 20, 2025 Full Review Kraven the Hunter (2024) 15% “The film begins with an impressive action sequence that showcases Kraven’s talents, while also sprinkling in some humour. Unfortunately, it’s a rollercoaster of ups and downs after that as the picture yo-yos between solid storytelling and pitiful acting.” – Digital Journal Jan 20, 2025 Full Review The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim (2024) 48% “With a blank slate, [the filmmakers] embrace the opportunity to give depth and character to a woman in Tolkien’s world. Even Hèra’s lady-in-waiting, Olwyn, is given more consideration than would be typical...” – Digital Journal Jan 20, 2025 Full Review A Complete Unknown (2024) 82% “Chalamet’s performance is remarkably good. The opening scenes seem a bit shaky, but as the film goes on, he grows more comfortable in Dylan’s skin and the impersonation becomes more convincing. The same can be said about his singing.” – Digital Journal Jan 20, 2025 Full Review Better Man (2024) 88% “Initially, the non-human face is off-putting, but as the narrative progresses and Williams’ story grows more complicated, it becomes less significant in everyday interactions, while making his delusions more menacing.” – Digital Journal Jan 20, 2025 Full Review Nosferatu (2024) 84% “‘Nosferatu’ is an impressive adaptation that uses dramatic cinematography to generate an intensely striking Gothic horror picture.” – Digital Journal Jan 20, 2025 Full Review The Room Next Door (2024) 81% “In spite of their capable performances, the film’s most notable shortcoming is that it lacks the passion that exudes from Almodóvar’s previous pictures.” – Digital Journal Jan 20, 2025 Full Review Wolf Man (2025) 50% “‘Wolf Man’ is an effectual monster movie, which regrettably disadvantages its attempts at a cohesive narrative.” – Digital Journal Jan 20, 2025 Full Review Gladiator II (2024) 70% “The concept of following Lucius’ homecoming had potential, but it doesn’t quite fulfill his father’s promise to return glory to Rome.” – Digital Journal Nov 26, 2024 Full Review Wicked (2024) 87% “With a few exceptions, including the muddled narrative, this is an extravagant movie experience that unfortunately feels incomplete since the story was split into two parts.” – Digital Journal Nov 26, 2024 Full Review Venom: The Last Dance (2024) 40% “The high points are fun, comical and often violent, ranging from amusing one-liners to well-deserved beat downs... However, there are major lulls in which the jokes fall flat and Eddie’s constant trepidation is annoying” – Digital Journal Nov 11, 2024 Full Review Conclave (2024) 93% “... it feels like they are taking part in an American presidential election (which may also speak to the timing of the release), laden with scandals and mudslinging as the race for one of the world’s most powerful positions grows tighter.” – Digital Journal Nov 11, 2024 Full Review Seeds (2024) 100% “There’s a lot to enjoy in this small Canadian film, from the likeable cast to the environmentally conscious but not preachy script that blends humour and badassery. ” – Digital Journal Nov 11, 2024 Full Review
